Studying History is not for the faint of heart. It knocks us out of our comfort zone. But maybe that's the point. Good History is a podcast from the Oklahoma State University History Department inspired by Oklahoma native Dr. John Hope Franklin's wisdom that "A good historian is a moralist at heart." We ask historians: why do you study what you study? We ask people: how does knowing more about the past make your life, and our lives, better? And along the way we dig into a paradox: Americans love history—we fight over it bitterly--but many voice skepticism about its value in education. Why?
